sometimes the right song comes around at the right time. i've been feeling very unmoored lately...as if time is passing me by so fast that i'm getting disproportionately far removed from everything that meant anything in the past. i'm just floating around, not doing anything with the time i have. i need to get my bearings back, find meaning in what i can, but it's harder than i expected.
these feelings have made it very difficult for me to pick music to fit my mood. none of my current addictions felt quite right. but, i heard "Somewhere on Fullerton" by Allister for the first time today. it's a few years old...i'm shocked that i missed it, because Allister is from Chicago. but, it was like a big hug from a pair of loving, pop-punk arms.
the lyrics are a huge part of why i picked this song...if you're curious, i put them below:
"Somewhere on Fullerton"
by Allister
somewhere down on fullerton
there's a place that meant
so much to everybody like me
somewhere down on fullerton
there's a place that meant
the world to everybody like me
but i'm still trying
just to figure out why
this feels so wrong
when it felt so right
felt so right four years ago
so please don't go away
won't this feeling stay with me forever
forever i said
please don't go away
i just want you to stay with me forever
somewhere down on fullerton
there's a place that meant
so much to everybody like me
somewhere down on fullerton
there's a place that meant
the world to everybody like me
but i'm still trying
just to figure out why
this feels so wrong
when it felt so right
felt so right four years ago
so please don't go away
won't this feeling stay with me forever
forever i said
please don't go away
i just want you to stay with me forever
but i'm still trying
just to figure out why
this feels so wrong
when it felt so right
felt so right four years ago
so please don't go away
won't this feeling stay with me forever
forever i said
please don't go away
i just want you to stay with me forever
forever i said
please don't go away
won't this feeling stay with me forever
forever i said
please don't go away
cause all i want is
you to stay with me
